News/release from Dark Knight ez (http://amplituds.drunkencoders.com/)
AmplituDS v3 reached the 10,000 downloads milestone on my site!
When I first started creating the game, I never imagined this could ever happen.
To celebrate, I present to you, AmplituDS v3.1. The release of a private build I've been working on a small bit which has a couple of (minor) improvements.
For those who are not yet familiar with AmplituDS; it's a homebrew game created in the style of Amplitude for the PS2. Amplitude is a rhythm game created by the same team which started the Guitar Hero franchise and now Rock Band. Lots of fun to play. A couple of youtube movies to show off AmplituDS: SMB Remix on brutal and Lady Lucifer on insane
Improvements since v3:
Approximately twice as fast start up time.
Anti-aliasing used for 3D graphics.
The targets are not missing sections anymore.
The 'amplituds' folder does not need to be placed in the root of your media card anymore, it is searched for. Meaning you can have it as a subfolder of a "data" folder on your card for example.
Max-Media Dock users should not have to set their clock to 00:00 anymore (untested).
You can create and insert your own stage now! <blatant lie, as this feature has always been there, but I wanted to get it to people's attention. :p>
A tutorial for the creation and insertion of your own stage has been created by DevilSpawn and can be found here. (http://amplituds.drunkencoders.com/?s=forum&loc=http://z11.invisionfree.com/amplituds/index.php?showtopic=202&st=0)
